He disclosed that the health facility has grown from an initial staff of eight or 10 people to more than 30 persons over the few years of its vibrant existence and already “we have added important areas such as immunology, microbiology and molecular biology.”He noted that it is a signal achievement that Guyana through the Reference Laboratory has the capacity for PCR-DNA and RNA Laboratory testing which is done routinely.

We (GNBS) would come unannounced to conduct surveillance to see how you are implementing your system…and that you are doing all the things that you would have documented in your quality manual.”It is a requirement in the Health Facility Act that all medical laboratories must be certified,NFL Jerseys China, that is, implementing the requirements of the GYS:170 standard so that thequality service offered can be monitored to guarantee reliable and accurate results.“There is no turning back now you have made the choice to prove to your customers…as the National Public Health Laboratory other labs are looking to you for reference.
